Top 10 Health Stories of 2009
2009 was a busy year as gene-related exploration tools opened up a treasure trove of new discoveries. We’ve learned why some of the obvious good health habits, like getting enough sleep and exercise are more important than ever, and we’ve learned new things about health that were barely imagined even a year ago.

Which Whey to Go
In the world of dietary supplements and functional foods there are many choices in terms of product quality, and whey protein is no exception. This is especially true when a used-car sales pitch is used in an effort to make products look and sound far better than what is actually under the hood.

Vitamin D is Needed to Fight and Prevent the Flu
This past year everyone saw with their own two eyes that our government’s public health officials had no problem using fear to influence Americans to be guinea pigs for an experimental H1N1 vaccine. It was equally obvious that the government cried wolf and has egg on its face, as their predicted pandemic never happened (and not because of an effective vaccine campaign) Where are they now when it becomes obvious that a lack of vitami D drastically impairs the immune response to fight any flu – especially considering a majority of Americans are lacking in the nutrient?

Abnormal Brain Structure in Schizophrenia
The post-mortem analysis of the brains of patients with schizophrenia compared to normal brain shows severe dysregulation in the matrix outside of brain cells that holds them together in key regions of the subconscious brain associated with learning, memory, and the processing of stress.

Chlorella Protects Against Methylmercury
Methylmercury is a highly toxic compound that binds tightly to nerves, inducing significant nerve damage. It can cross the placenta and injure the fetus. Chlorella is algae with the ability to absorb methylmercury. Research now shows that chlorella can significantly reduce the toxicity of methylmercury exposure to the fetus as well as prevent its accumulation in the brain. This is an important health issue to understand.

Major Blood Pressure Discovery Offers Immediate Solutions
British researchers using state-of-the-art x-ray technology have identified the primary reason blood pressure elevates in the first place. A key regulatory protein that regulates blood pressure, angiotensinogen, is damaged or oxidized by free radicals. This leads to a chain of events that are the source of the elevation of blood pressure. The significance of this discovery to human health and cardiovascular disease cannot be understated.

Senator Ted Kennedy - The End of an Era
Senator Ted Kennedy has lost his battle with cancer. Over the next few weeks he will receive many well deserved accolades and condolences from around the world. His passing, in many ways, is the final chapter in an era of America. On the subject that matters most to me, health freedom and access to natural health options, Senator Kennedy was no friend of the people. His utopian view of health care for everyone, with no way to pay for it, is rooted in a philosophy of excessive government control that is at odds with free choice and true health freedom.

Brave Oxford Researchers Say Tamiflu is Not for Kids
Governments in the United States and Great Britain plan to use antiviral drugs as a first line of defense against the Swine Flu (along with experimental vaccines as they become available), especially in at risk groups such as young children. A new study by Oxford researchers published in the British Medical journal questions the wisdom of this advice and points out that the risks are likely to outweigh the very slight benefits. (See full study and related commentary).

The Narrow Scope of Flu Vaccine Usefulness
Let’s assume for the moment that a textbook H1N1 swine flu vaccine is actually produced. Let’s put aside our conce s about its potential toxicity, adverse side effects, or the difficulty in getting a vaccine that actually looks like the current flu problem. And let’s focus on a more fundamental question: Would such a vaccine work for you? Our public health officials seem to think that a vaccine is the answer to the swine flu or any other potential flu that could come along.

Olive Leaf Extract Offsets Stress of High Calorie Intake
It is ironic that food, which is so vital to survival, when consumed in excess is literally poison to your metabolism. Excess consumption of fat and carbohydrates rapidly leads to cardiovascular malfunction, liver malfunction, and numerous metabolic changes associated with easy weight gain and disease risk. A new animal study shows that the powerful antioxidant in olive leaf extract known as oleuropein is protective against the onset of many of these health issues. In the study rats were fed a high carbohydrate and high fat diet for 16 weeks, compared to a control diet.

The New World of Bones – Thyroid, Leptin, Blood Sugar, and Bone Strength
In 1994, with the discovery of leptin, the view of white adipose tissue was transformed from a warehouse whose primary role was the storage of extra calories into one of the most important endocrine organs in the human body. The explosion in leptin-related research, now involving over 16,000 studies, is a testament to the emerging reality that leptin regulates (as a top-level manager) almost everything in your body. In the past few years the leptin science has transformed our understanding of bone health and bone function.

Surprisingly High Cancer Risk from CT Scans
Isn’t it nice to know that the medical profession caused 29,000 future cases of cancer in 2007 from the CT scans it performed on patients (a great tool for future business). Think twice before falling for a heart scan add you hear on the radio, the risk for a woman getting cancer from it is 1 in 270. These are some of the remarkable numbers coming from two new studies published Monday in the Archives of Internal Medicine. Keep in mind that health organizations need to use their expensive machines to justify having them. In the U.S. alone over 70 millio CT scans are performed a year.

How to get started
Byron J. Richards is the author of three excellent books. He was the first to write a book for the public explaining the hormone leptin and its immense importance to weight loss and overall health, called Mastering Leptin (2002). In 2006 he wrote a shorter version of this book called The Leptin Diet, featuring 5 lifestyle guidelines for healthy weight management. These books are great guides for health—whether you are looking to lose weight, maintain a healthy weight, or improve overall wellness. Mastering Leptin is a top choice for those looking for more technical information about the hormone leptin and its relationship between other hormones and disease. In early 2006, Richards released Fight for Your Health, an expose revealing the collusion between the government and big corporate in regards to the food supply, pharmaceuticals, control over nutritional supplements, the FDA and more. We invite you to read all three!
